Alexander Isak faces some big decisions at Newcastle United this summer 🇸🇪
Alexander Isak faces some big decisions at Newcastle United this summer 🇸🇪
Alexander Isak set to turn down Newcastle United offer with No. 9 departure imminent
Isak withdrew from the Sweden squad earlier this month due to a groin injury. While the issue was thought to be minor, its recurring nature is something Newcastle had to manage during the 2024/25 campaign.
Isak’s form suffered as he nursed the problem during the final months of the season as Newcastle secured Champions League qualification to build on their Carabao Cup success in March. The 25-year-old was still able to end the campaign with 27 goals to his name, with only Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah scoring more in the Premier League.
Given the ongoing transfer interest in Isak, Newcastle are keen to tie the Swede down to a new long-term deal. The striker still has three years left on his current contract, but The Magpies want to avoid a situation where the striker runs down his deal.
Liverpool have been busy in the transfer market so far this summer following the Premier League win last season. The Reds have completed a Premier League record deal to sign Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen for £116.5million and are also agreed a deal to sign Milos Kerkez from AFC Bournemouth.
Isak is also on Arne Slot’s radar with the Newcastle No. 14 described as a ‘dream signing ’ for the Merseyside club.
